Electronic cigarette

ABSTRACT

An electronic cigarette, including a limit cover, a seal gasket, heating wires, oil-guiding cotton, a thread ring, a sealing ring for sealing the heating wires, an insulating ring, and a joint. The electronic cigarette includes two heating wires which are disposed on the thread ring. The two heating wires are fixed using the joint and the insulating ring. The oil-guiding cotton encircles the end surface of a fiber string of the heating wires. The limit cover is sleeved on the oil-guiding cotton for fixing the position of the heating wires. The seal gasket is disposed at the one end of the limit cover. The insulating ring is disposed between the thread ring and the joint. The sealing ring is disposed on the thread ring for sealing the heating wires.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The invention relates to an electronic cigarette.

2. Description of the Related Art

It is well-known that smoking is harmful to health, but there are stillhundreds of millions of smokers in the world, and the trend isexpanding. To purify the environment, prohibition of smoking in publicplaces has become the consensus. Thus, cigarette substitutes, such aspatches for quitting smoking, nicotine mouthwash, nicotine gum, nicotinedrink, flourish in the market. Although the cigarette substitutes causeno tar harm, nicotine is slowly absorbed in the blood and thus aneffective peak concentration of nicotine cannot be established, so the“satisfied” feeling resulting from the high concentration of tobaccoalkali cannot be achieved. Meanwhile, the smokers are deprived of thesmoking actions such as inhaling, exhaling, and puffing by consumingcigarette substitutes.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In view of the above-described problems, it is one objective of theinvention to provide an electronic cigarette that is convenient for useand causes no pollution. When consuming the electronic cigarette, anenjoyable experience resulting from the smoking actions such asinhaling, exhaling, and puffing can be achieved.

To achieve the above objective, in accordance with one embodiment of theinvention, there is provided an electronic cigarette, comprising a limitcover, a seal gasket, heating wires, oil-guiding cotton, a thread ring,a sealing ring for sealing the heating wires, an insulating ring, and ajoint. The electronic cigarette comprises two heating wires which aredisposed on the thread ring. The two heating wires are fixed using thejoint and the insulating ring. The oil-guiding cotton encircles the endsurface of a fiber string of the heating wires. The limit cover issleeved on the oil-guiding cotton for fixing the position of the heatingwires. The seal gasket is disposed at the one end of the limit cover.The insulating ring is disposed between the thread ring and the joint.The sealing ring is disposed on the thread ring for sealing the heatingwires.

In a class of this embodiment, the electronic cigarette furthercomprises a joint connected to a base of the heating wires.

Advantages of the invention are summarized as follows:

-   -   1) two heating wires are employed, the smoke concentration is        dense, the taste is pure, and no oil leaks; and    -   2) the heating wires are disposed at the bottom of the        electronic cigarette, the heating wires and other auxiliaries        such as fiber strands are hidden in the electronic cigarette,        which presents a beautiful external appearance.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The invention is described hereinbelow with reference to accompanyingdrawings, in which:

FIG. 1 is an exploded view of an electronic cigarette of the invention;and

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of an electronic cigarette of theinvention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, an electronic cigarette comprises a limitcover 1, a seal gasket 2, heating wires 3, oil-guiding cotton 4, athread ring 5, a sealing ring 6 for sealing the heating wires, aninsulating ring 7, and a joint 8.

The electronic cigarette comprises two heating wires which are disposedon the thread ring 5. The two heating wires are fixed using the joint 8and the insulating ring 7. The oil-guiding cotton 4 encircles the endsurface of a fiber string of the heating wires 3. The limit cover 1 issleeved on the oil-guiding cotton 4 for fixing the position of theheating wires 3. The seal gasket 2 is disposed at the one end of thelimit cover 1. The insulating ring 7 is disposed between the thread ring5 and the joint 8. The sealing ring 6 is disposed on the thread ring forsealing the heating wires 3.

The smoke oil is stored in an oil loading device of the electroniccigarette. The smoke oil is transmitted to the fiber strand of theheating wires 3 via the oil-guiding cotton 4, and thus there is a largeamount of smoke oil in the heating wires 3 for atomizing.

By using the electronic cigarette, the smoke concentration is dense, thetaste is pure, and no oil leaks into the mouth of consumers.

While particular embodiments of the invention have been shown anddescribed, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that changesand modifications may be made without departing from the invention inits broader aspects, and therefore, the aim in the appended claims is tocover all such changes and modifications as fall within the true spiritand scope of the invention.
